Do you leave your consoles on? (lemmy.world)

Do you leave your consoles on while you’re not playing them and if so, whats the longest you’ve left it on? does it matter if the system is disc based, cartridge etc?? why do you leave it on?

personally i was told by my parents to always turn it off when i was done. thinking this was a pretty normal thing to do until one of my friends shared with me that he always has his n64 running conkers bad fur day. if it isn’t, the powers out. I’m rather surprised, but curious if anyone else does this.

Are they children who don't pay the electricity bill, selfish energy wasters, or just idiots?

You know, when I quit Reddit I hoped I’d see less of this kind of hostile, insulting comment.

Well when you give a shit about the environment and then you hear about people doing something incredibly wasteful it winds you up, you know?

None. I just have lots of internet traffic that I prefer to have running to do things.

Lots of people taking you up on your username 24 hours a day, eh?
